Phase Relations in the Cu–Sb–O System

  • Published:
Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

The Cu–Sb–O system was studied by x-ray diffraction and thermal analysis between 700 and 1000°C. The compositions of copper antimonates were refined. Sb2O4 was found to exist in two polymorphs above 800°C: α-Sb2O4 (dominant phase) and β-Sb2O4 . The evolution of phase equilibria with increasing temperature was examined. The isothermal sections of the Cu–Sb–O phase diagram were mapped out using new and earlier reported results.
